Meeting: 04/07/2017 - Environment and Licensing Committee (Item 96)

Change of Circumstance of Hackney Carriage / Private Hire Drivers Licence No. 3725

Report of Director for Health and Community Wellbeing - David Wakelin

Minutes:

Consideration was given to a report by Director of Health and Community Wellbeing, which had been circulated prior to the meeting, regarding a change of circumstances for a Joint Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver’s Licence for GQ.

 

GQ attended the meeting with his solicitor and both addressed the Committee.

 

In making its decision, the Committee applied the Council’s approved Policy and Guidelines.  On the basis of what it heard, the Committee was satisfied on balance that exceptional circumstances existed which warranted departure from policy.

 

RESOLVED:

 

To approve GQ’s application for a Joint Hackney Carriage/Private Hire Driver’s Licence for a period of 3 years.  And issued with a severe warning that the Council are informed of any further convictions.
